Chapter 147
The Carter family stayed with Jason and Sharon at Hoggard Manor for more than half a day. In the afternoon, they got up, said goodbye, and left.
When they were leaving. Sharon was reluctant to part with them and kept telling them to come over often and spend time together.
Debra and Patrick agreed repeatedly, and everyone got in the cat reluctantly. After the car started and drove off, they breathed a sigh of relief.
It wasn’t too late when they got home. Lillian and Kevin were eager to go and play in the yard, so the butler took them out.
The next day, they flew back to Hivalis and signed the endorsement contract
After the contract was settled, Hoggard Technologies replied quickly, saying that the shooting time would be determined according to Becky’s schedule. She could just let them know when she was free to do it.
The attitude of Hoggard Technologies once again puzzled Lynn. Even the person in charge of Hoggard Technologies suspected Becky had something to do with the Hoggard family or the grandmother of the current CEO of Hoggard Technologies, Otherwise, she couldn’t have received such a good treatment.
Lynn thought, “It’s such a big company. Even if global superstars come here, they will have to obey the arrangement of Hoggard Technologies. But Hoggard Technologies actually let Becky arrange the time and will do the shooting only when this little star named Becky is free. This treatment is no different from that for a princess!” After Lynn got the news from Hoggard Technologies, she immediately called Becky and told her about it.
Stacey was no longer as surprised as before. After receiving Lyngs call, she thought about it and decided to hurry and get the endorsement shooting over with
Lynn thought about it and reckoned there was no problem. She contacted her friends and discussed the endorsement matter with them. Then, she took Becky to Strico, where the headquarters of Hoggard Technologies was located
Although Stacey had been mentally prepared to enter such a world–class company for the first time, she was still nervous after entering it. What made her even more nervous was that when she came, Hayden, the CEO of Hoggard Group, came out of his office in person and went downstairs to greet her at the entrance.
The employees of Hoggard Technologies were all stunned. They pretended to be working hard while sneaking glances in the direction of Hayden and Stacey ith curious and gossipy gazes
“H–Hello.” Stacey looked at Hayden and felt nervous. She hesitated and greeted him cautiously.
Hayden looked at Stacey. His handsome face with sharp features was expressionless and looked serious the whole time. He nodded, hummed, and responded concisely. “Let’s go inside first
Stacey quickly nodded and replied, “Okay”
Hayden nodded, then turned around, and walked toward the elevator. Stacey hurriedly caught up, followed by Lynn and several employees of Hoggard Technologies.
This time, only Lynn accompanied Stacey to come for the endorsement shooting. After all, the other party was the Hoggard family Patrick and Debra were very reassured, so Debra didn’t bring Lillian and Kevin to come with Stacey this time.
Hayden pressed the button for the 33rd floor, which was an exclusive floor for the CEO’s office. There was only a huge conference room on the entire floor other than the CEO’s office. The elevator door quickly closed, and the elevator began to move upward.
Hayden told the employees of Hoggard Technologies, “You can go back to work first. We will start shooting after she has a
good rest.
The person in charge of the planning department was speechless.
“Okay, Mr. Hoggard,” Daniel, the planning department’s manager, replied quickly.
The employees of the planning department hurriedly pressed the button for the Lith floor, where the planning department was located. They thought they’d better leave quickly.
The cramped elevator was so quiet that the sound of a pin falling on the floor could be heard. Everyone held their breath and was too nervous to move
The elevator went up floor by floor and finally reached the 15th door, and the elevator door opened.
“Mr. Hoggard, we will go to work first,” Daniel said quickly.
“Okay,” Hayden responded in a low voice.
Daniel walked ahead, followed by several employees from the planning department. They hurried out as if they were fleeing.
The elevator door quickly closed again and continued to go up in the small elevator, there were only four people left. They were Hayden, an employee of Hoggard Technologies, Stacey, and Lynn
Somehow, Stacey suddenly remembered that when she had visited Hoggard Manor a few days ago, Sharon had said Hayden was the one who had told them she had returned to the Carter family. “Thank you, Mr. Hoggard.” She thought about it and finally thanked Hayden sincerely.
Hayden was stunned when he heard this. He looked at her and asked in confusion, “What did you thank me for?”
Stacey was at a loss for words. She organized the words in her mind and then explained, “I went to Hoggard Manor with my parents a few days ago. We met Mr. Jason Hoggard and Mrs. Hoggard. Mrs. Hoggard said it was you who told her I had returned to the Carter family.”
Hayden nodded. “Well, Grandma has always missed you.”
Stacey was silent.
Lynn, who was listening to their conversation, was surprised. Her expression remained unchanged, but she was shocked inwardly. So I guessed it right before, didn’t I? Becky and the Hoggard family did know each other. Otherwise, how could such a world–class enterprise have chosen us to be their endorser?” she mused.
The topic ended inexplicably, and the elevator fell into silence again. Stacey’s heart beat fast, and she became nervous again.
As time went by, they finally reached the 33rd floor, and the elevator door opened.
Hayden lowered his eyes and said to Stacey, “Here we are. Let’s go
Stacey quickly nodded and responded, “Okay.”
